Chick-fil-A Chicken Nuggets

Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• Peanut oil, for frying

Instructions

1. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces.
2. In a large bowl, whisk the egg and milk. Add the chicken to the egg mixture; stir to combine. Cover and marinate for 3 to 4 hours.
3. In a gallon-size zip top bag, mix the flour, confectioners' sugar and spices until well combined. Add the chicken pieces and shake well.
4. In a large cast iron skillet, or frying pan, pour 2 inches of peanut oil. Heat oil over medium-high heat.
5. When oil is hot, add battered chicken to the pan. Cook chicken in batches, turning once halfway through, until nuggets are golden brown.
